It does sound as if you have a factory freak of sorts, considering the Vortech claims of 254 at the wheels were with an aftermarket cat back on the car!!! How's it doing in the cooler winter air? That normally turns the Vortech into a monster!

The little freak runs like a maniac! I get no traction at all, it'll roast em just pushing the gas first thru third gears with all the salt on the roads. I need the lsd bad before I try to get anymore power.

Wow. Thank the car gods. You couldn't hope to do better than that. If I were you I would plan out a nice exhaust system to see if you can improve your power. Don't wreck your stock pipes, just set them aside, just in case! lol

I hear that. I was hoping I could get a borla, at least a y-pipe to start with considering its semi-cheap. I really need that LSD though. As far as the car gods go, I praise them everytime I hop in the SVT

It doesn't fit the ATX housing. The only reason the MTX-75 has one is because of the Focus having the same trans and a huge aftermarket support group. Otherwise we'd be SOL too... Since the ATX performance junkies are in very short supply, plus don't share trans with the unsupported ATX Focus (your only hope), you get nil.

I'm not complaining at all. I just want to know how this could be. 20 hp is ALOT more than vortech claims, I don't even have a exaust on this car. just the Vortech, so what could make this so? The internals are all the same as every other svt. So I'm pretty much amazed. No complaints at all. I'm extremely excited to see what future mods will do. I'll post dyno charts with every mod I get just to track the performance increases or decreases to find out what makes this car unique.
